Bobbie and I always laugh about the TV news people encouraging people to stock up in advance of a storm. If we didn't go to a market for two weeks we wouldn't go hungry! We have a gas grill for which I keep an extra tank at all times. I also keep several bags of charcoal on hand, buying it when Lowe's does their 2-fer deals and use it in my big smoker or a small grill. So, if necessary, we can cook anything in the freezers and keep it on ice. Saying all that, one thing we've been very impressed with is the quality of electrical service here in Thomas County, GA. These folks here have their act together to keep our lights on!
